Turn My Friend Away Songtext
von Linda Hoover

I turn my friend away when he moans like Leo′s Lisa
When he's talkin′ 'bout that piece of pie in the sky
That he thinks he's gonna have some day

I turn my friend away when he runs his private races
When he clocks his dreams
And puts them through their paces


Well, I just wish I had a penny
For every time I′ve heard them say empty soundin′ words
They just fill the night with tears
Like the snowbird that I hear singin' at dawn
I know what he′s trying to say
And as night turns into day

I turn my friend away
When the bold eyed boys of Summer
Entertain me with their teenage grief, come hither

Well, I just wish I had a penny
For every time I've heard them say empty soundin′ words
They just fill the night with tears
Like the snowbird that I hear singin' at dawn
I know what he′s tryin' to say
And as night turns into day
